Microwave-induced plasma reduction of Sc2O3 for sustainable Al3Sc alloy production: In Situ analysis of Al3Sc formation mechanisms

This study aimed to elucidate the reaction mechanism of the microwave irradiation method, a novel approach for synthesizing scandium (Sc) and aluminum (Al). Sc2O3 and Al mixed powders were exposed to Mg vapor or Mg plasma. In situ gas analysis and XRD analysis revealed that Al3Sc was formed as a res...
